Shooting a roll of Lomochrome Metropolis in Atlanta with the Leica M6 (35mm Film Review)

I hit the streets of Atlanta, Georgia to shoot a roll of Lomography's Lomochrome Metropolis 35mm film with my Leica M6 TTL. This film is a very interesting film stock that has it's own unique look and isn't true to real life, but has a large following of Lomographers who love the look! I figured the Atlanta cityscape would be the perfect place to test this film and see what it can do. I also included a photo review segment in this video to give a little more information about how I felt about this film and if I would recommend it. Let me know if you like the photo review segment because I was trying something a little new and would love some opinions on it! :)

Great job stepping out of your comfort zone and shooting a film that has a style you don’t gravitate towards. It’s very interesting that despite not caring for the look of this film stock/style, you really seem to have a good eye for it. I definitely hope that you don’t shy away from it in the future, you had quite a few very nice shots in there. I was really digging that 1st van shot, it lends well to that film’s characteristics. It’s easy to shoot what you know & get consistent results but it takes skill to shoot film you’re not familiar with & still make it work. This definitely speaks to your skills as a photographer.

Thank you so so so much! That means so much to me :-)! It’s a super interesting film and I’ll definitely try it again soon! I’ve been having a blast trying out a bunch of films I wouldn’t normally use!

i appreciate the look of this cam actually. it’s def not standard and the sky isnt a priority for it loll but it’s a specific vibe. dude i love the quick discussions on your fave photos once you get the film back. fave pic is the scooters in front of mercedes benz stadium 🏟

@@KelseySmithPhotography no worries. would be cool if you made a digital preset to emulate the look!

@@streetroguephotography haha! I don’t know if I’m savvy enough to emulate this look in Lightroom, but I definitely might release some of my presets!

I still don't know how I personally feel about this film haha shot it twice already... I think your high-contrast street photos in sunny conditions look great!

Thanks for watching Bon! I hope you enjoyed!! :-) I don’t really have a huge opinion on it either yet. It’s definitely not my style, but it’s pretty neat for what it is, but most importantly I’m just glad new films are being produced!

@@KelseySmithPhotography same! I’m definitely supporting new films 😂
